Loeb NOLSON when he hang out the eusign ' England expects every man to do his duty" little thought in all proba- bility, that the hearty response accorded him by the navy would ever prove true of British soldiery on either land, water or air, But it sands to the credit of the sons of the Empire that they are still prepared to do their duty, It is said on the French end Belgium battle line when a specially brave or daring exploit is carried out, unless the men engaged are known, the comment is frequently made "They mnet be Canadians," The boys from the land of the Maple are no discredit to John Bull's children. What le true of the lade is equally true of the Canadian nurses who hundreds of times have blessings pronounced upon them for their unfailing kindness, good cheer and courage. Snores. Inured is said to be felt and shown by. the German and Austrian soldiers toward Great Britain for thwart- ing them in their deep laid and well planned military schemes for the con- quest of Europe. Some day it may be shown them that the object of their spleen played a very heroic part in de- fending the rights of weaker powers, even at the sacrifice of her best blood and the expenditure of millions of money. We are glad that many a Cana. dian Teuton harbors no revengeful feel- ings towards the British Empire in this contest and believe the cause of Germany would be just as sincerely upheld if they were the aggrieved Nation. GreatBritain bolds no spite but maintains her dignity and high mission with a vigor that has won her many friends. FRIDAY was tbe one hundredth anni- versary of the battle of Waterloo. It looks as if history would shortly repeat itself in the overthrow of a keener militarist than the historic Napoleon, While the arena may be somewhat the same as a century ago the battle front, involved is n armament,men and Nations amplified again and sin. "Bony"was a g 1r great general but for ways and means for the destruction of human beings and property compared with today he was a conniseur. The hero of France went to his fate a sadly disappointed mac. whose dreams of world conquest ended in a terrible nightmare. A day of reckoning is on the way when the dove of peace will once more hover over Europe and'', B'disrupters will bite the dust. Betjeen now and then there may be a many cannonade, many a mad charge, many a million slain but even if the mills of the gods grind slowly the grist will be turned out with relentless exactness. Militarism must fall with a terrible crash. not a mean Or shabby thing to stand ;by the law and see that ethers do the same, even if some fellows who eater to John Barleyeoru, throw a few bricks your way.

DisAR FoL1ts —We have been out of f the trenches a day or two so I have a l little time to write you a line. Had 5 days in the trenches and believe me, it wa. long enough. The night we went in it rained all night and we were covered with mud It takes. the shrapnel to make you jnntp round, in fact between shrapnel, Jack lobus on's and bullets you have to keep your bead down. There has heeu a battle on here this last week and ahsy are attacking all the time, It's fierce in attack. You can't hear yourself speak for rapid firing and machine guns, They always put the Canadians in a charge and it is awful as the Germans have so many machine guns they just riddle us up, But for all that they aren't there when it comes to the cold steel and when the boys get close with the bayonets they beat it. They are full of tricks, 'L'he other night the 48th, Toronto, charged and they turned the machine guns on them and they had to retire. The Germans dressed up in the kilts and cense up to our lines but somebody got wise and asked them to throw down their arms and When they refused we turned the machine gun on them and cleaned out the boob. We hope the war will soon be over as a fellow soon gets his fill of ouch terrible fighting. I've been lucky act far ab though a bullet went through my coat. It was dark and I did not know it hap- pened until afterward. We went into the trenches with Ross rifles but came out with Lae-Eoflelds, The former_ go on the "bummer" when• rapid firing. It's a shame too, hundreds of them thrown away when they cost so much. When they get hot you have to put your foot on the bolt to open the breech. There's not much time for that when the Germans are pnppiug at you. Getting the wounded in is the worst part of the job and we all have to take our turn at it, not knowing' but we may be next. When we hear a bullet sing out alone we all say "A sniper, keep your bead down." ` We are going 'ome place to night, guess back to the trenches but that is what we left home for. With kind regards, Yours Truly, Ross, P, S,—Yon can send anything you like in the way of "eats" and smokes, as they go pretty good over here.

It lB 35th Annual Meeting of Nigh Court C. 0. F. The 35th Annual Meeting of the Canadian Order of Foresters, convened on Tuesday afternoon, the rsth of June, in the city of St. Catharines, at 2 p. m. Delegates in attendance from all parts of the Dominion, every province being represented. The High Court met in St. Catharines for the first time since its inception. ace tion. The annual reports of the various of- ficers of this Older are Brain of a vets satisfactory nature, showing that the steady progress which has been its ex- perience since its inception in 1879 was continued in the year 1914, which is the period covered by these reports. This Order confines its business en• tirely to the Dominion of Canada. In all its departments, and {n sp to of the adverse genetal conditions which have been experienced in Cauada, uniform progress is demonstrated. The increase in the insurance funds during the year amounted to $375.295.- 94. 375.295:94, this increase being the second larg• est in the Order's experience, and only some $5,000.00 less than the largest in crease in any one year, which occurred in 1912. The standing of this fund at the end of the year, after the payment of 599 death claims, amounting to $613 • 8go 52, showed the funds on hand of $4.740,368.o1, the amount at the present time being $4,884,448.13. The yearly revenue derived from the investments of the Order now constitute a very sub- stantial amount of the annual income. Interest earned on investments of insur- ance funds during 1914 amounted to $223,761,64, and paid 36.44 per cent of the total death claims on the Order. 1e respect to the matter of invest- ments, it is interesting to know that the Order confines the investment of its funds to the purchasing of municipal and school debentures of the Dominion of Canada. During the last two years, with an exceptional market in such direction, from the investor's point of view, the Executive Committee hes been able to take very extensive advant- age of the situation. The Sick and Funeral Benefit Fund shows a larger net increase than that ex- perienced In any previous year in the Order's history, the increase for the year. being $55,o7t 58, Interestearned on in- vestments of Sick and Funeral Benefits funds (these investments being of s similar nature to those made of the In- surance funds) amounted to $18,713 in and after the payment of 7,319 Sick and Funeral Benefit claim•, amounting to $188,430 35, the amount standing at the credit of this fund was $40.3,284 77, the seine fund at the present time standing at $409.583 63. The General Fund le also in a satis- factory condition. Many special charges, incident to the war, including donations to national and patriotic funds . and the arrangements for carrying mem- hers on overseas service, hereafter re- ferred 10,,have been arranged as antici- pated, without any iucontrenience to this Fund,. ' HE- STRUCK IT RIGHT AT LAST After Suffering Almost Two Years, !'Fruit-a-tiveo" Brought Relief. MR. WHITMAN 882 St. Valier St., Montreal. "In 1912, I was taken suddenly ill with A.eute Stomach Trouble and dropped in the street. I was treated by several physicians for nearly two years. I was in constant misery from my stomach and my weight dropped - down from 225 pounds to 160 pounds. Several of my friends advised me to try 'Fruit-a-tives' anal did so.. That was eight months ago. 1 began to improve almost with the first dose. No other medicine I ever used aetedso pleasantly and quickly as `Fruit -a -fives', and by using it I recovered from the distressing Stomach Trouble, and all pain and Constipation and misery were cured. I completely recovered by the use of 'Fruit•a•tives' and now I weigh 208 pounds. I cannot praise 'Frult•a•tives' enough".

Sick and Funeral Benefit departments, speciel provision is made under the constitution of the Order for assistance to those of its mem• bars suffering from tubercular trouble of any kind. A special grant is made, ex- tending over a period of six months, with a view to assisting to defray the cost of treatment -in any of a number of sanitariums In. Canada making a special- ty of such cases, and the membership is urged to take advantage of such treat- ment inthe incipient stages of the malady. It is gratifvine to note, after a perusal of the reports of all the cffieers, the far- reaching benefits that are being derived by the membership in the various direc- tions in which the society endeavors to be of assistance to .the individuals com- posing same: Since 1879 'about Ani millions of, dollars have been paid out in benefits by this society, and, in fact, the whole record of the Order as submitted in these reports, is well worth the perusal of those who, perhaps; have been skeptical regarding the permanen- cy and stability of fraternal insurance Personality A factor in the Mak- ing of Men's Clothes "Personality," says one whose wisdom is not to be questioned, "is the greatest thing in the world." - We all know how it counts in the work of this busy world -•-- forcing success where least expected.

Two quarts of oil in the gear case of this 8 -foot auto -oiled windmill will keep the gears and every bearing flooded with on for a year or more. • The galvanized steel helmet covers the gears, keeps out rain, keeps out dust, keeps in oil; The mill needs oiling but once a year. " There is a windmill, known the world over as "the windmill which runs when all others stand still." This new windmill with gears and bearings flooded with oil runs in much less wind than that well known windmill. The two large gears, which lift the 1oad.straight up, are each independent -of She other and each is driven by its own pinion on the main shaft and must take its half of -the load at all times, The auto-oiledwindmill.wlthitsdunlicate gears andtwo pitmen lifting theload straight owlet un- breakable. Every 8 -foot mill is tested underapumping load of 30(10 pounds on the pump rod. For the larger sizes the load isproportionately greater. We,know that every one of these windmills is unbreakable. We venture the assertion that this is the most nearly perfect, best made, best tested, best oiled, most nearly perpetual, automatic and self- eufficient of any machine of any kindever made for farm work and the most nearly fool -proof. There is no friction on any part of thefurl- ing device when the mill is runamg. and very little wherethe wheel is furled. • a � )t' hnnnlmiamas mnsfifielet l dtitllll I 41 A ema11 child can eastlyifurl this wintiiillnor an automatic regulator can take g of it.

From this gear case the oil circulates to every bearing in a constant stream, It (,owe out through thefriction washer) in the hub of the wheat and is automatically returned to the gear case. Not a drop of oil can escape, It is used over and over. So long as there is any oil in the gear case the gears and every bearing will be flooded with oil. 1f you ere tired of climbing a windmill tower; If you are tired of buying repairs and having them put on; or, If you are tired of waiting for big wind, let usfur- Man you en unbreakable, self -cuing, ever -going mill to go on any old tower.

The flooding of all the working parts with oil, the perfect balance of the wheel and vane on the tower, the very small turntable on which the mill pivots and the outside furling device make this difference. Now there is no objection to a high tower. Have as high a tower as you need to get wind. You don't have to climb it. Your dealer can come once a year and put m oil, if needed, and inspect the mill.
